Os Bichinhos e o Homem
Vinicius de Moraes
The Little Creatures and the Man
Our sister, the fly
Is ugly and rough
While the mosquito
Is prettier
Is prettier
Our brother, the beetle
Made of leather
Barely knows how to fly
Barely knows how to fly
Our sister, the cockroach
Such an annoying little thing
Is a cousin of the butterfly
Who is a snob
Who is a snob
Our brother, the cricket
Always making noise
Just to annoy
Just to annoy
And the jigger
How delightful it is
When it itches
It itches a lot
And our brother tick
Another annoying creature
A cousin of the bacillus
Who is a calm brother
Who is a calm brother
And the man who thinks he knows everything
Doesn't know what the little creatures will have for dinner
When his day comes
When his day comes
